Embodiment
Consulting shown in Figure 1ly, is the system architecture diagram that the present invention realizes UEFI BIOS remote upgrade.Said a plurality of client computer 2 is connected with server 1 through network 3.Wherein every client computer 2 all comprises a network interface card 20 and a UEFI (unified extensible firmwareinterface, unified Extensible Firmware Interface) BIOS (basic input output system, basic input output system) 21.Store the packet that the UEFIBIOS21 that supplies client computer 2 upgrades in the said server 1.In the present embodiment, said network 3 can be intranet (Intranet) or Ethernet (Ethernet), also can be the communication network of the Internet (Internet) or other type.
Said server 1 also comprises request receiver module 100, data transmission blocks 101 and feedback module 102.The alleged module of the present invention is to accomplish the computer program code segments of a specific function, be more suitable in describing the implementation of software in computer than program, therefore below the present invention to all describing in the software description with module.
Described request receiver module 100 is used to receive the data read request of client computer 2 transmission under the UEFI environment and second stand-by period that server 1 is waited for client computer 2 responses.
Said data transmission blocks 101 is used to respond the data read request that said client computer 2 sends, and sends corresponding packet according to data read request and give client computer 2.
Said feedback module 102 is used to wait for that the ACK (acknowledgecharacter, acknowledge character) of client computer 2 replys.Said ACK is meant that in data communication receiving station issues a kind of transmission control character of dispatching station, and its expression confirms that data sent has received errorless.
Said feedback module 102 is used to also judge whether server 1 detects the ACK answer of client computer 2 in second stand-by period that is received.
Said feedback module 102 also is used for when server 1 detects the ACK answer of client computer 2 in second stand-by period that is received, and the ACK that receives said client computer 2 replys.
Consulting shown in Figure 2ly, is that client computer 2 utilizes server 1 among Fig. 1 to realize the method flow diagram of BIOS remote upgrade in the preferred embodiment of the present invention.
Step S10, one of Connection Service device 1 or many client computers 2 are unlocked, and client computer 2 gets into the UEFI environment, and loads virtual hard disk.
Step S11, the data between client computer 2 foundation and the server 1 connect.
Step S12, client computer 2 is provided with the stand-by period.The said stand-by period comprises first stand-by period of client computer 2 waiting for server 1 response and second stand-by period that server 1 is waited for client computer 2 responses.Said first stand-by period can be identical with second stand-by period, also can be different.
Step S13, client computer 2 send data read request and the second set stand-by period is given server 1, with request data download bag from server 1.Said packet 10 comprises UEFI BIOS file and UEFI BIOS refresh tool, behind the said client computer 2 data download bags, according to UEFI BIOS file in the packet and UEFI BIOS refresh tool UEFIBIOS 21 is upgraded.
Step S14, the client computer 2 waiting for server 1 above-mentioned data read request of response and the packet of replying.
Step S15 judges whether client computer 2 detects the packet that sends from server 1 in set first stand-by period.If client computer 2 does not detect the packet that sends from server 1 in the first set stand-by period, then process ends.
Step S16; If client computer 2 detects the packet that sends from server 1 in the first set stand-by period; Then client computer 2 discerns whether the packet that sends from server 1 is TFTP (trivial file transfer protocol, TFTP) packet.If the packet that sends from server 1 is not the TFTP information bag, then return step S14.
Step S17, if the packet that sends from server 1 is the TFTP information bag, then client computer 2 reads the size of said TFTP information bag, and distributes corresponding cushion space according to the size of TFTP information bag.
Step S18, client computer 2 receives said TFTP information bag.
Step S19, client computer 2 judge whether the TFTP information bag finishes receiving.If the TFTP information bag size that client computer 2 receives judges then that less than the TFTP information bag size that is read the TFTP information bag does not finish receiving; If the TFTP information bag size that client computer 2 receives equals the TFTP information bag size that read, judge that then the TFTP information bag finishes receiving.
When the TFTP information bag does not finish receiving, be back to step S18; Perhaps, when the TFTP information bag finished receiving, execution in step S20 sent ACK and replys to server 1, finished receiving with notification server 1TFTP packet, and stored the TFTP information bag that is received.
Consulting shown in Figure 3ly, is the method flow diagram that server among Fig. 11 is supported client computer 2BIOS remote upgrade in the preferred embodiment of the present invention.
Step S30, the request receiver module 100 in the server 1 receive the data read request of client computer 2 transmission under the UEFI environment and second stand-by period that server 1 is waited for client computer 2 responses.
Step S31, the said data read request of data transmission blocks 101 responses in the server 1, and send corresponding packet according to data read request and give client computer 2.
Step S32, the feedback module 102 in the server 1 waits for that the ACK of client computer 2 replys.
Step S33, feedback module 102 judge whether server 1 detects the ACK answer of client computer 2 in the second set stand-by period.If server 1 does not detect the ACK of client computer 2 and replys in the second set stand-by period, then process ends.
Step S34 replys if server 1 detects the ACK of client computer 2 in the second set stand-by period, and then feedback module 102 receives the ACK answer of said client computer 2.
What should explain at last is; Above embodiment is only unrestricted in order to technical scheme of the present invention to be described; Although the present invention is specified with reference to preferred embodiment; Those of ordinary skill in the art should be appreciated that and can make amendment or be equal to replacement technical scheme of the present invention, and do not break away from the spirit and the scope of technical scheme of the present invention.
